Agrees to change the lubricant (6)

I believe the answer is:

grease

'the lubricant' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'agrees to change' is the wordplay.
'to change' indicates an anagram.
'agrees' anagrammed gives 'GREASE'.

(Other definitions for grease that I've seen before include "Musical that sounds like a country" , "Lubricate (-ant)" , "Musical - lubricant" , "Lubricating agent" , "Fatty lubricant" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
